After that, I just remember her voice 44 the importance of a good handshake, conveying (傳遞) a positive 45 of self, looking at other persons in the eye, making the first moment matter... I think in that 46 I first understood 47 .
I respected her for 48 the time to teach me about one of those subtleties (細(xì)微之處) in life. I appreciated the fact that she didn’t look down 49 me because I was 11 or because I didn’t know 50 .

第三部分 閱讀理解(共10小題;每小題2分,滿分20分)
A
If you travel around the world, you will be surprised to find just how different the foreign customs can be from your own.
A visitor in India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man clearly shaking his head at another and assume that he doesn’t agree. But in many parts of India a shake of the head is a gesture that shows agreement of acceptance. Nodding your head when offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty. In that country you shake your head to indicate “yes”—a nod indicates “no”. The Arabs are known for their hospitality (好客). At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula, you will find that any drinking cup is repeatedly refilled as soon as you drink it up.
In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when sitting talking to someone, even at an important meeting. Doing this when meeting an important person in Thailand, however, could cause trouble. It is too informal an attitude for such an occasion. Also when in Thailand you are not supposed to touch the head of an adult. In Japan, it is quite usual for men to plan evening entertainments for themselves and leave their wives at home. In Europe such attitude is disappearing.
Customs vary from country to country. Visitors may be at a loss as to what to do in a foreign environment. In such circumstances, the golden rule to follow is: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
56. In which country, a left-hand is not welcomed?
A. Thailand. B. India. C. Arabic peninsula.D. Bulgaria.
57. In which country, if someone shakes his head at another, it shows that he agrees or accepts?
A. Bulgaria. B. Thailand. C. Japan.D. Arabic Peninsula.
58. Which of the following is impolite in Europe according to the passage?
A. To cross legs.
B. To touch the head of an adult.
C. A man plans evening entertainment and leaves his wife at home.
D. To drink up the glass in your hand.
59. If you don’t know the customs in the country where you visit, the rule to follow is ____ .
A. to do as the Romans do B. to do nothing C. to visit Rome only D. to do as the natives do
60. The underlined phrase “at a loss” means “____”.
A. surprisedB. worriedC. excitedD. puzzled
B

His country does not want war, he says, but the Syrian people have waited too long for an end to the troubles with their neighbors. If war comes, says Mr. Krim, Syria will be ready.
2. Ben Kitson, a writer of stories and plays for children, has died at his home in California. Mr. Kitson was 82. His most famous book of stories, “The Gentleman’s House” sells all over the world, in more than twenty-five languages.

第一節(jié) 短文改錯(cuò)(滿分10分)
What a long winter vacation! I stay at home doing nothing except homework every day as a robot. One day, an idea occurred to me: “Why not to find a part-time job to learn something newly?” The next morning, before visiting many shops, I was lucky enough to find it in a small but pretty cake shop. When a tired-looking old man came in to buy some cake, I immediately helped him sit down in the chair and brought him the cakes. After he paid them, I said thanks to him. He looked very happy but praised me with a satisfying smile.
